A.  ROY  &  CO.,  Publishers, 
,  ILL. 


As  this  Guide  is  intended  for  the  use  of  country  merchants,  it 
will  be  our  main  object  to  give  such  information  as  will  be  of 
special  service  and  interest  to  them,  and  while  we  may  give  a  few 
condensed  descriptive  reviews  of  the  more  prominent  places,  it  is 
our  intention  rather  though  to  point  them  out,  and  leave  our 
readers  to  discover  their  attractions  for  themselves. 

Certainly  it  is,  that  Chicago  can  with  pride  point  to  her 
gorgeous  streets,  her  palatial  stores,  her  magnificent  hotels,  her 
elevators,  her  manufactories,  her  large  lumber  interests,  her  rail- 
ways running  in  all  directions,  her  metropolitan  places  of  amuse- 
ment, and  especially  to  her  enterprising  and  go-ahead  merchants, 
to  whom  much  credit  is  due  in  making  Chicago  the  Metropolis  of 
the  West. 

If  this  small  but  carefully  compiled  Guide  should  prove  as 
serviceable  and  useful  as  we  trust  it  may,  it  is  due  to  the  firms 
of  A.  T.  STEWART  &  Co.,  GRAY  BROS.,  PHELPS,  DODGE  &  PALMER, 
and  HIBBARD,  SPENCER  &  Co.,  to  state  that  the  publication  of  this 
Guide  is  due  to  their  liberality  and  business  enterprise.  It  is 
also  to  the  credit  of  the  publishers  of  this  work,  that  in  taking 
advertisements,  only  the  leading  and  representative  firms  have 
been  accepted,  and  as  this  Guide  will  fall  mainly  into  the  hands 
of  country  merchants,  we  feel  justified  in  using  this  discrimination.

HAND-BOOK  TO  CHICAGO. 


CITY  HAL.!*. 

One  of  the  most  interesting  sights  to  be  seen  in  Chicago  is  the 
new  Court  House,  now  reaching  completion,  on  the  site  of  the  old 
Court  House  destroyed  by  the  great  fire.  The  exterior  of  county 
;;  portion  of  the  building,  with  the  exception  of  its  dome  and  cupo- 
^  las,  is  now  finished,  presenting  with  its  massive  granite  columns, 
numerous  pilasters  and  richly  carved  caps,  one  of  the  finest  and 
most  costly  municipal  buildings  in  the  country.  The  only  build- 
ing of  its  kind  in  the  Union  that  can  compare  with  it,  for  costli- 
ness and  beauty  of  architectural  design,  is  the  so-called  Public 
Building  of  Philadelphia.  The  Court  House  will  occupy  a  full 
square,  and  have  its  main  entrances  on  Clark  and  La  Salle  Streets. 
The  cost  of  the  building  when  completed  will  be  about  $5,000,000. 

CUSTOM  HOUSE  AND  POST  OFFICE. 

The  United  States  Custom  House  and  Post  Office  building  is  a 
massive  structure,  one  of  the  finest  of  the  kind  in  the  country ; 
built  of  Cincinnati  sandstone,  303^  feet  north  and  south,  201^ 
east  and  west,  three  stories,  attic  and  basement,  144  feet  high 
from  the  ground,  costing  near  $5,500,000.  The  main  front  oppo- 
site the  Grand  Pacific  Hotel,  on  Clark  street. 

CHAMBER  OF  COMMERCE. 

The  Chamber  of  Commerce  is  opposite  the  Court  House  on  the 
Cor.  of  Washington  and  La  Salle.  It  is  built  of  Ohio  Sand  Stone, 
and  is  conspicuous  for  its  grand  entrance  and  large  windows. 
Visitors  are  permitted  to  the  galleries,  where  a  most  interesting 
sight  is  presented.  Here  one  sees  a  thousand  or  more  men 
who,  collectively,  compose  the  Chicago  Board  of  Trade,  and 
handle  the  grain  and  provision  trade  of  the  Northwest.  It  is 
180x90  feet  on  the  ground ;  two  floors,  occupied  by  offices  and  the 
Chamber  of  Commerce. 

WATER    WORKS. 

Pumping  capacity,  100,000,000  gallons;  average  daily  city  con- 
sumption, 50,000,000  gallons;  cost  of  works,  $8,430,000.*  The 
most  important  acquisition  and  feeder  to  a  city  is  its  water  priv- 
ileges. In  this,  as  in  many  other  respects,  Chicago  will  vie  with 
any  other  city  in  the  world.  Nature  has  provided  her  with  the 
big  and  pure  Lake  Michigan,  the  supply  from  which  being  simply 
inexhaustible.  An  immense  masonry  tunnel  penetrates  the  lake 
for  a  distance  out  of  three  miles,  whence  it  receives  its  supply 
from  the  BOTTOM  of  the  lake,  through  the  "crib."  Underlying 
the  city  are  spacious  tunnels  and  "mains,"  constantly  supplying 
the  three  divisions  with  an  abundance  of  cool  and  wholesome

Water.  I'he  Water-Works,  buildings,  machinery,  etc.,  are  well 
worthy  of  a  visit  from  the  stranger,  imparting  knowledge  in  this 
respect  infinitely  superior  to  any  other  American  or  European 
city.  Street-cars—fare  5  cents— convey  you  to  either  of  the  Works 
— North  or  West  Sides— the  former  being  by  far  the  most  attrac- 
tive, on  account  of  its  STONE  TOWER,  rising  to  <  the  dizzy  height  of 
175  feet,  and  from  which  the  visitor  may  enjoy  an  unobstructed 
view  of  the  entire  city  and  its  surroundings. 

THE  PUBLJC  I^IBRARY 

is  a  place  of  interest  to  the  visitor.  It  has  62,000  volumes.  After 
the  great  fire,  the  world  was  laid  under  voluntary  tribute  to  restore 
the  lost  library.  The  response  was  general,  and  the  present  mag- 
nificent  library  is  the  result.  The  collection  is  varied  and  valuable 
— a  collection  of  ancient  and  modern  lore.  The  daily  average  of 
volumes  taken  out  is  1,205  ;  the  largest  number  in  any  single  day 
was  3,339.  A  well  supplied  free  reading-room,  is  connected  with 
it.  Corner  Dearborn  and  Lake  streets. 

The  Athenaeum,  Mercantile  Academy  and  Gymnasium  and 
Reading-room  is  adjacent  to  the  Public  Library,  and  is  a  flourish- 
ing institution. 

THE  UNIVERSITY  OF  CHICAGO 

is  the  leading  educational  institution  of  Illinois.  It  has  a  fine 
observatory.  St.  Ignatius  College,  Presbyterian  Theological  Sem- 
inary, Northwestern  Seminary,  and  Garrett  Biblical  Institute,  at 
Evanston,  are  prominent  educational  institutions.  Chicago  has 
312  churches,  and  an  efficient  public  school  system. 

THE  ACADEMY  OF  SCIENCES, 

the  Chicago  Historical  Society,  with  its  admirable  collection  of 
historical  works ;  the  Academy  of  Design,  the  Reading-room  of 
the  Young  Men's  Christian  Association,  and  other  places  of  a 
similar  character,  are  well  worth  visiting,  and  the  stranger  will 
learn  from  seeing  them  that  Chicago  is  not  unmindful  of  the 
claims  of  higher  education  and  higher  attainments  in  the  arts  and 
sciences,  notwithstanding,  it  is  a  great  commercial  mart  and 
enthusiastically  devoted  to  commerce  and  business. 

CHICAGO  CI^UB  HOUSES. 

The  Chicago  Club  occupies  quarters  on  Monroe  near  State 
street,  equal  to  those  of  any  such  institution  in  the  country.  It 
has  become  historic  as  the  place  of  entertainment  of  commercial 
clubs  and  organizations  from  abroad.  The  Calumet  Club,  Eight- 
eenth street  and  Michigan  avenue,  and  the  Union  Club,  furnish 
accommodations  for  the  residents  of  the  South  and  West  Divisions, 
and  have  good  accommodations  in  the  way  of  buildings.

LAKE   FRONT— EXPOSITION    BUILDING. 

The  Lake  Park,  or  Lake  Front,  is  in  the  heart  of  the  city— 
almost  wholly  artificial,  made  by  filling  in  to  extend  the  city  land. 
It  is  a  pleasant  resort,  and  on  summer  evenings  is  crowded. 
Trains  on  the  Illinois  Central,  Chicago,  Burlington  &  Quincy, 
Michigan  Central,  Baltimore  &  Ohio,  and  Kankakee  Route/' 
pass  this  Park  and  the  Exposition  Building  in  leaving  and 
coming  into  the  city. 

The  Inter-State  Industrial  Exposition  Building  is  one  of  the 
most  notable  of  the  public  buildings  in  Chicago.  Those  who  are 
familiar  with  the  magnitude  and  importance  of  the  Annual  Exhi- 
bitions given  there  the  past  seven  years  will  recognize  the  value 
and  efficiency  of  the  same  in  bringing  before  the  country  the 
products,  especially  of  the  great  Northwest,  in  the  most  promi- 
nent manner  possible.  It  is  a  veritable  bazaar,  exhibiting  every 
conceivable  manufactured  article,  from  the  largest  steam  engine 
down  to  the  most  ''improved  and  approved  pin."  The  magni- 
tude, elegance  and  perfect  adaptation  of  the  building  and  fixtures 
to  the  requirements  of  a  representative  exposition  of  the  indus- 
tries of  the  vast  extent  of  country  represented  here,  are  admira- 
ble. The  building  is  1,000  feet  in  length,  with  an  average  width 
of  240  feet;  height  of  main  tower,  168  feet  from  the  ground,  from 
which  a  full  view  of  the  city  may  be  had.  It  is  well  lighted  day 
and  night ;  has  a  water  supply  so  distributed  by  service  pipes  and 
so  controlled  by  a  fire  brigade,  always  on  duty,  that  a  loss  by  fire 
is  almost  impossible.  This  is  a  building  it  will  well  repay  the 
tourist  to  visit.  Its  general  architecture  is  modeled  after  the 
Exposition  Building  in  Vienna,  in  1866.  The  success  of  this 
praisworthy  enterprise  is  largely  due  to  the  energy  and  persistent 
efforts  of  John  P.  Reynolds,  Secretary  of  the  Company.  The 
annual  exhibit  is  during  the  months  of  September  and  October. 

THE  DOUGLAS  MONUMENT, 

on  the  lake  shore  near  Thirty-fifth  street,  is  the  finest  piece  of 
workmanship  of  the  kind  in  the  city.  It  consists  of  a  column 
rising  from  a  quadrangular  block,  which  incloses  the  tomb  of  the 
great  statesman  and  patriot,  and  is  surmounted  by  a  bronze  statue 
of  him.  It  was  built  by  public  subscription,  and  finished  in  1878. 
Is  surrounded  by  handsomely  ornamented  and  improved  grounds. 

THE  UNION   STOCK  YARDS. 

The  Union  Stock  Yards  are  the  most  extensive  and  complete 
in  the  world.  Corner  of  Halsted  and  Forty-third  streets,  and 
can  be  reached  in  thirty  minutes  from  the  center  of  the  city,  by- 
street or  steam  cars.  It  is  the  greatest  live  stock  market  in  the 
world,  covering  an  area  of  207  acres,  and  fitted  with  every  con- 
venience for  the  conducting  of  that  immense  business.  Near  by 
are  the  mammoth  packing-houses,  and  not  far  away,  and  to  be 
'taken  in"  in  the  same  visit,  are  the  great  lumber  yards  of  the 
South  Branch,  and  some  of  the  immense  elevators  for  which

CORNER  OF   W ABASH  AVENUE, 

CHICAGO. 


Chicago  is  noted.  All  to  be  reached  by  steam  or  street  cars  or  the 
drive  via  Michigan  and  Wabash  avenues,  and  South  Park  avenue 
and  the  boulevards  are  a  favorite  drive  to  the  Parks,  where  the 
park  phaetons  will  take  you  up  and,  at  a  cost  of  twenty  cents,  will 
take  you  about  and  give  a  general  view  of  the  parks  and  grounds. 

LAKE  SHORE  DRIVE— LINCOLN  PARK. 

The  Lake  Shore  Drive  can  be  reached  by  taking  State 
street  north  to  the  Water- Works.  Thence  on  to  Lin- 
coln Park,  the  largest  and  most  notable  in  the  city.  The 
topography  was  originally  diversified,  but  the  whole  was  a  stretch 
of  sand-hills  and  plains.  This  barren  waste  has  been  redeemed 
and  converted  into  a  delightful  pleasure-resort  for  the  people  of 
all  classes,  by  the  use  of  150,000  cubic  yards  of  black  earth  and 
clay,  and  is  supplied  with  water  from  the  Chicago  Water-Works, 
the  town  of  Lake  View,  adjacent  on  the  north,  and  two  artesian 
wells,  1,150  and  1,500  feet  deep  ;  has  over  three  miles  of  pipe  and 
one  and  one-quarter  miles  of  sewerage ;  is  annually  visited  by 
2,000,000  people,  and  about  3,000  vehicles  pass  through  it  daily. 
Sundays  and  fete  days  it  is  densely  crowded.  The  park,  with  the 
shore-drive  to  Pine  street,  contains  295  acres— 7  miles  drives, 
embracing  35  acres  ;  7  miles  walks,  8  acres  ;  the  lakes  and  sylvan 
bowers  and  lakelets,  12  acres  ;  lawns,  120  acres,  and  balance  unim- 
proved. It  has  a  lake  frontage  of  2j£  miles,  a  splendid  drive-way 
bordering  the  lake  the  entire  distance,  which  is  a  conspicuous 
feature,  affording  views  of  the  lake  elsewhere  wholly  unsurpassed. 
The  natural  beauty  of  the  north  shore,  elevated  above  the  water 
upon  a  level  plateau,  which  is  kissed  by  a  lake  of  marvelous 
changeable  beauty,  with  its  pictures  of  blue  waters  and  blue  sky, 
and  its  fleets  of  vessels  passing  by  add  their  charms  to  the  entire 
scene  and  make  it  a  place  of  pleasure-resort  seldom  excelled.  On 
beyond  are  what  have  been  termed  the  "  Highlands  of  Chicago." 
The  Zoological  Department  is  quite  creditable,  having  several 
uncommon  animals  and  birds.  Recently  two  very  fine  speci- 
mens of  the  Sea  Lion  have  been  added  to  its  many  attractions.. 
The  Floral  Department  is  excellent. 

WEST  AXD  SOUTH  SIDE  PARKS. 

Going  to  the  West  Side,  we  see  Humboldt,  Central,  Douglas — 
the  principal  parks  in  the  West  Side  park  and  boulevard  system, 
with  an  area  of  565  acres.  Union,  Jefferson,  Vernon  and  Wicker 
Parks  are  smaller,  but  pleasant  and  beautiful  places  of  resort. 
Xear  Central  Park  is  the  Chicago  Jockey  and  Trotting  Associa- 
tion's track,  which  is  considered  the  fastest  track  in  the  country, 
Maud  S.  having  here  made  her  wonderful  time  of  2:103^. 

(JKAXD  AXD  DREXEL,  BOULEVARDS. 

The  most  extensive  of  Chicago's  park  and  boulevard  system 
are  the  South  Parks,  which  are  composed  of  two  parks,  with  an 
area  of  965  acres.  Here  are  the  famous  Grand  and  Drexel

Boulevards.  The  floral  display  on  these  boulevards  is  said  to  excel 
anything  of  its  kind  in  Europe  or  America.  It  is  a  veritable 
Ambrosia  in  the  suburbs  of  Chicago;  pleasure  to  the  eye  and 
gratifying  to  the  taste.  There  are  lakes,  bridges,  grottos,  and  all 
that  art  can  desire  to  please  and  entertain  in  the  way  of  rural 
and  rustic  attractions.  The  total  assets  of  the  South  Park  Asso- 
ciation is  $6,624,509.  When  the  projected  system  of  Parks  and 
Boulevards  is  consummated,  Chicago  will  rival  Paris  in  this 
respect. 

The  Union  Stock  Yards  are  in  the  vicinity  of  these  Parks.

Copy  of  a  Letter  from  Jno.  Riebling,  Professor  of  Music,  Pittsburgh,  Pa. 

'Messrs.  J.  Bauer  &  Co.:  PlTTSBURG,  PA.,  Nov.  28,  1879. 

GENTLEMEN:— The  Bauer  Piano  which  I  purchased  of  you,  I  ani 
happy  to  say  is  growing  in  favor  every  day.  The  more  I  use'it  the  bet- 
ter I  like  it.  I  have  had  Pianos  from  many  .celebrated  factories,  but 
have  found  none  to  equal  yours  in  power  and  purity  of  tone,  elasticity 
of  touch  and  durability.  I  am  glad  that  my  first  good  opinion,  which 
promted  me  in  exchanging  my  Knabe  Piano  for  the  Bauer,  has  proved  a 
lasting  one. 

Yours  respectfully,  JNO.  RIEBLING. 

Prices  and  terms  to  suit  all  purchasers.  Every  instrument  fully 
warranted  for  five  years. 

Importers  of  Musical  Merchandise,  Band  Instruments,  fine  Violins
